LOS ANGELES >> A Hacienda Heights high school student alleged he suffered a stroke and a brain injury after his wrestling coach made him lose weight too quickly, according to a lawsuit filed on his behalf.

The suit seeks unspecified damages. A district representative did not immediately reply to an email seeking comment.

According to the lawsuit, the boy, now 16, was set to take part in a wrestling match in January 2015 at his 132-pound weight level. However, two days before the match, Olague told him to compete at a level six pounds lighter, the suit alleges.

“The instruction contradicts tests done at the outset of the season that limited the amount of weight that should be lost to no more than two pounds in one week,” according to the lawsuit.

The teen was “dehydrated and fatigued” on Jan. 8, 2015, the day of the match, the suit states. He not only took part in the competition, but also helped other boys bring the wrestling mat back and forth between the wrestling practice area and the gym, the suit states.

The boy woke up with a headache the next day and did not go to school at his grandmother’s request, the suit states. One day later, he returned to school to take part in wrestling practice and began a two-mile jog, the suit states.

The teen felt dizzy while running and collapsed, the suit states. Olague did not call 911 or seek medical help, but a friend and teammate of Luis helped him to the practice room, the suit states.

The boy called for his grandmother to pick him up, but when she arrived he could not get up, the suit states.

“Ms. Fernandez then attempted to lift plaintiff and help him to her car, but was unsuccessful, and plaintiff was unable to walk,” according to the complaint.

The boy later found out he suffered a stroke and brain injury because of Olague’s “actions and omissions,” the suit alleges. The complaint further maintains the district negligently hired, supervised and retained a coach who was unfit to be the school’s wrestling coach.
